"We grow older, things become more disordered, the universe expands, and things die out. Where does that directionality come from?" — Jim Al-Khalili Find out in our new podcast episode, available now on Apple Music and Spotify: bit.ly/4aV0Fen @jimalkhalili
Emerging from her interview with @jimalkhalili for BBC Radio 4’s #TheLifeScientific, to be broadcast in July. Dr Anne Child, Medical Director of the #Marfan Trust, discussed her uniquely fascinating life and career! We will remind you nearer the time!
The Life Scientific coming up in a few minutes on @BBCRadio4
The Life Scientific coming up in a few minutes on @BBCRadio4
Tomorrow morning on #TheLifeScientific on @BBCRadio4 I chat with astronomer and @RoyalAstroSoc president, Mike Edmunds. We discuss galactic chemistry, ancient astronomical instruments, and the ghost of Isaac Newton makes a guest appearance. Last in the series.
🚨 Reminder🚨 @RoyalAstroSoc president Mike Edmunds will be a guest on BBC Radio 4's The Life Scientific tomorrow (Tuesday 23 April). Hear about Prof Edmunds' life and work as he is interviewed by presenter @jimalkhalili. Listen at 09:00 BST 📻 🎤
Daniel Dennett (1942-2024) - Daily Nous dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
Oh lord, Dan Dennett has died. That's a huge loss to the intellectosphere. He ruffled lots of feathers and often divided opinion, but he was a phenomenal thinker and always worth listening to. And a fabulous writer.
I hope this @TheTLS review of Dennett’s I’ve Been Thinking explains why I think he was such a force for good in philosophy the-tls.co.uk/articles/ive-b…
Very sad to hear that the philosopher Daniel Dennett has died. He was a hero of mine and his book, Consciousness Explained, was quite wonderful. I interviewed him on The Life Scientific back in 2017 bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08…
New paper out in @PhysRevC with @LanceYHLi and @gleet_tweet on the effectiveness of quantum algorithms (and hence the usefulness of quantum computers) for modelling the structure of atomic nuclei. journals.aps.org/prc/abstract/1…
@EdinburghUni @closefrank You can also hear Peter Higgs in his own words, talking to @jimalkhalili on Life Scientific just after the Nobel and discovery. bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03…
My favourite Life Scientific chuckle moment with the amazing @jimalkhalili: Jim: "Peter Higgs what is the Higg's Boson?" Peter: "...well...theory...symmetry breaking...background field...mass differences...waves propagate..." "Can you encapsulate that in say 30 seconds?" "No" LOL
A great series of short YouTube interviews by @paulsenwriter with historian of science, Simon Schaffer: Artificial Intelligence--Lessons from History youtube.com/playlist?list=… via @YouTube
The final episode in my interview series with Cambridge historian Simon Schaffer is now online. This one’s about the roots of “big data” and how to deal with the fact that numbers dominate our lives. youtu.be/3wakZNjnBkg

And, that's a wrap. I have just marked my last tutorial essay EVER. (It got 85% and not just cos I'm demob happy about retiring, even if I am. It was terrific. Felt good to go out on a high!)
I have a new career goal - do well enough in science that I can be interviewed on #thelifescientific by @jimalkhalili .
@jimalkhalili V good Jim. Totally had me. 🤝
@jimalkhalili Nearly had me there until I remembered the date! 🤣
@jimalkhalili 😂👍So far the best one today! Did you also test the other way round? Letting the system pop out of the water by simply thinking of the information to be stored? That would be interesting.
@jimalkhalili Happy April Fools to you too sir
@jimalkhalili I fell for it and just went " Oh, no, not Jim Al-Khalili now.".
@jimalkhalili I sent it to my niece who has a degree in Biology and a fair understanding of Physics and Quantum Theory. She didn’t realise it was a April Fool and instead sent my a rather long and detailed analysis and a list of recommended Authors to debunk your theory.
@jimalkhalili Don’t forget how it explains the abilities of ghosts to pass through solid objects and balls through Birmingham’s defence in 2nd half injury time!
@jimalkhalili I should really be more attentive (and less grumpy) today 🥳
@jimalkhalili @ProfBrianCox It took me far too long going whaaat? Whaat? To OH!
@jimalkhalili Got me, hook line and sinker 🤣. Nice one !
@jimalkhalili Is the date of publication relevant 😀
@jimalkhalili I've heard it works even better with dehydrated water.
